This list is far from complete, and is based on eval #107275 on hydra. bwa: fails on non-x86_64 targets. This package is part of bioinformatics.scm so it may not be intended for non-x86_64 targets. chicken: guix refresh -l chicken: no dependant packages. Has not built successfully since early May. x86_64: http://hydra.gnu.org/build/701776/nixlog/1 (~1900 lines) runtime te= sts timed out armhf: http://hydra.gnu.org/build/701673/nixlog/1 (~4300 lines) tests pass (including runtime tests) until ports test Error: (line 294) invalid escape-sequence '\x o' =3D> Embedded NUL bytes in filenames are rejected. mips64el: http://hydra.gnu.org/build/699177/nixlog/1 same as arm i686: http://hydra.gnu.org/build/698575/nixlog/1 same as x86_64 diamond: fails on non-x86_64 targets. This package is part of bioinformatics.scm so it may not be intended for non-x86_64 targets. eigen: fails on non-x86_64 targets. As per their website http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=3DMain_Page this package may need special attention for compile flags for non-x86 targe= ts. fastcap: fails on all hardware targets. has not built successfully since August 1st.=20 gnurl: fails on all targets. test 46 fails. updating to 7.40.0 also fails at test 46. 7.43.0 is missing install.sh, so it doesn't build. currently waiting on 7.44.0 from gnunet. gprolog: armhf: configure: error: unsupported architecture guile-ncurses: guix refresh -l guile-ncurses: no dependant packages The first failure was after ncurses was updated from 5.9 to 6.0. Currently I don't see ncurses 5.9 when I search in guix, so we're left with either waiting for guile-ncurses 2.7 to be released or reimplementing ncurses 5.9 = if we want it now. ibus-libpinyin: fails on all targets with the following error during the configure phase: configure.ac:130: warning: macro 'AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library autoreconf: running: /gnu/store/7zdchnk3sl66wqf2a7pis7ahwf4f1dr1-autoconf-2.69/bin/auto= conf --force configure.ac:130: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GLIB_GNU_GETT= EXT I leave it as an exercise to the audience to figure out what's missing :) opam: fails on all target with the following error during the configure phase: configure: error: You must install the Camlp4 pre-processor. On some operating systems, these are separate packages from the main OCaml compiler, such as camlp4-extra on Debian. python-urwid: fails on all targets, during the check phase. I forget the exact reason I started writing this email, but I think the plan was to point out that some build failures on hydra should be not too hard to fix, and some just need some extra help on armhf/mips64el to compile correctly. If we think of hydra more as a build test system and only secondarily for providing binary substitues then checking the failures and trying to fix them becomes more obvious, and not just for when its something we wanted built. --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --Sig_/UHzKlPhplZe/Xe5PAerfYja Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJWE5jdAAoJEPTB05F+rO6TKyMP/is1fTsjjf+g/s7bZD9i/CbM Kf6bui5jyrQA9aVylZ/OZtDIUpN+yhBJ+ybt+8m/rBrbzAQgbakl0y8OMpjGbr4r jg/WAJcfAfBFNb07kOvkkR2VVzRFULYa8XCSO+bZSsmeEveT3BtbMgD6Z5aLTYXc 94X0vxbkXOaBMNgrNKLBvXaDBYQMo0OnRFM8eJQZ96hlH3/KbqdPIA+hpi3kvB2Y rmhuzC4a0JrnmqiXXFHAjOrM2Vvi5yQgm29eOm9r4iXfV/TOBuz63Z5Zztxn/hDC W4KEzLKOJAjyT5mNZglvHy3wGzyugd1Crdx2xxat4s1IxMrQFQYqnMSs1iijhd12 odWAQCLzeyw8+mdBtqC40A6QyCY/1jDPQ4jLA2O38iTiiKw0YliLgqr7uNnZtskk kzynQm7+6x85wV+s8Dsg5pEz0+NeJmyrZBMz9OZm2At9Jw0C8GSENs/0LR34nZrr fWM8eQWhdOcT8XrJVFWqkeKL2x0tU855Mp2LUez8F5F6qoW6Mayo6jrFcCeBA8Ah dWSpOYtncaGd2fGGxMvBMzL1bs2hAiOEBAi+xCwe7547G+HryUXLdAe9BdVs6N9d uEn5KLrrb/N4ZzyqTq6tPVK+NfH0yHemhP6tkjmuxo/42U+trkZEMBfVGXxzOPCH eLofJrVFLv4b6atnEnFK =B0FQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/UHzKlPhplZe/Xe5PAerfYja--
